TONY-T Presents: Proof of the "TOASTY BOOST!"

[Flagg]

Why is it when something new is discovered there is someone out there without fail that says "I already knew about this"

Smells like bullshit to me.

 

[eskuAdradit0]

what did paulo just say?

 

[Warborn]

I've only seen this happen in one of my games once...

What would happen should this happen during a tournament match??

No one wants "random" stuff in fighting games. Especially competitive ones.

next step to fighting games is bridging the gap between them and real spots. Thing like doing a jump forward you risk a 0.3% chance of a groin ligament tear when landing which then adds 15-40% additional startup frames to all kick attacks and 5-20% less reach depending on the severity of the injury. Landing on your back can also have a 5% chance to cause a back sprain which can them lower your navigation speed 5-50% and reduce the frames of wakeup invunerability. good stuff. No? -__-

Inside information on new version of virtua fighter?

The toasty boost thing is not new at all. It was "discovered" long time ago.
If someone comes out with a working way to do it 100% of the time, then thats new.

Toasty bonuses happen when you combo off of a toasty uppercut. And its not only uppercuts....i've seen it done with Sektor's teleport uppercut before, but i cant seem to find the video of it.

In the video posted earlier Liu Kang doesn't combo off of the Toasty uppercut. But I agree, I've seen toasty's after combos which didn't have uppercuts.

To be honest, I had no idea that this was even considered a myth! I've seen it happen a couple of times, but I just figured that it was a random uppercut bonus...

 

[Satan1]

Did somebody try x-ray input after toasty? Just guessin'...
I has to be some input, i guess... And it's probably not that random.

 

[Jim]

I had this happen within the first week of playing the game and was really worried it was going to ruin tournament play. Since then I've only had it happen a total of 3 times.

If it were activated by doing the input bug, I would be a master of the Toasty Bonus!

I've only seen it once. It was done by Michaelangelo on the Medina stream in a KotH match.

Toasty appears randomly after someone get hit by (as mk team called it) a super high impact.
That's not only uppercuts, for example: kung Lao's mk2 spin = super high impact.

I have no idea yet about how to get toasty boost

 

[TONY-T]

When i hit my friend with the uppercut, i didnt follow up with any moves, nor did he. The boost just came up and it was my friend who received it.

But he must have done a certain button input while the toasty was on screen. Or it can just be completely rare and random.

 

[DanCock]

I thought it came out when ever you fuck up combos. I see that asshole all the time. I mess up combos all the time, thought the game was always making fun of me lol

i get this all the time with kenshi. when i'm spirit charging people to death when they are in the corner (i stand just outside sweep range) they'll often times try to jump out. as kenshi players know, often times it is extremely easy for your opponent to jump over rising karma. so if i don't have the spacing quite right i use d2 for anti air. if you d2 them into the corner from sweep range you can uppercut combo by linking in spirit charge. if you get dan forden off the uppercut then follow with spirit charge it often times = toasty.

i told krayzie and shory_88 about this at SCR and they looked at me like i was crazy lol. like someone said earlier, i heard tom mention the toasty boost right after the game came out on the S1TB show - but never really saw it happen. then when kenshi came out i picked him up immediately... and then i started seeing toasty boosts happen fairly often (2 or 3 times a month).

i've gotten it with ermac a couple times also off of a reverse uppercut linking in lift.

 

[TONY-T]

So it appears that whoever gets the first hit in after dan forden pops up gets the boost. Interesting!

 

[MKF30]

I love it! How to this day, MK still has it's secrets and something that has people saying "wtf, how do you do that?" nearly a year after!

Been reading about this for months but find it cool yet rare.

w/e man, you're crazy!

I think it would be sooooo freaking entertaining if someone is about to lose the match and gets a toasty, pulls an X-ray combo, and wins.

 

[Konqrr]

In the Liu Kang video, the bonus happened before the second uppercut. It seems to me that it is a command you do to get it once DF is on the screen. Could be character specific.

 

[Gesture Required Ahead]

Tom Brady will benefit greatly from this.

"And here comes the Brady special!!..NOO HE WHIFS IT, oh an uppercut, haha look, Toasty...wait, WTF TOASTY BONUS!! ANOTHER BRADY SPECIAL!! OOOHHHHH HE DID ITTT OHHH!!!!!!"

 

[miloPKL]

something so rare and cool shouldnt be banned imo. the likelyhood is one in a million. imagine reo v pl and someone got the toasty boost. HYPE AS FUUUUUUUUUUuuuuu

also someone should take note, is it perhaps round specific? can it happen in the first round or only the last? i havent watched any footage myself but it was just a thought.
